Our Faculty of Surgical Trainers (FST) is delighted to be hosting the International Conference on Surgical Education and Training (ICOSET) at the College, 21-22 March 2019. The Conference 'To Treat, To Teach, To Train' will explore professionalisation, regulation and excellence in surgical training.

Having a course or centre accredited by the College shows that it meets the same rigorous internal quality assurance processes as courses within the College’s educational portfolio. By having your course accredited, you will receive a range of benefits.

Simulation is an exciting and rapidly developing contemporary modality of surgical training. The Scottish Surgical Simulation Collaborative (SSSC) is a bicollegiate group of the RCSEd and RCPSG, with close ties to NHS Education for Scotland.

NOTSS is a behaviour rating system based on a skills taxonomy that allows valid and reliable observation and assessment of four categories of surgeons' non-technical skill: situation awareness, decision making, communication & teamwork, and leadership.
